Al Sharpton Weighs In On Chimpanzeegate, LAPD Responds

So, since I made my initial post about the Stamford chimpanzee mauling incident (mediocre band name), the wildly amusing original story has taken on a life of its own thanks to what you might call a questionable editorial decision by the folks at the New York Post to run a cartoon depicting cops shooting said chimpanzee while making a remark about the recently passed stimulus plan.

As you may have guessed (and heard, by now), this just added more dimensions to an already ridiculous story. Sure, we already had people coming out saying the chimp had done a number on them previously, and the widespread debate over whether Lyme disease or Xanax may have had an effect on the chimp going ape shit. But it wouldn’t be a truly epic shitstorm unless race baiting was somehow involved.
